Imperial Systems replacement filters bring longer life to employees and machines.
For years, Imperial Systems has been offering metalworking facilities advanced and reliable dust and fume collectors. We also offer high-performance metalworking dust collector filters for systems by other brands. These upgrade filters are designed to provide outstanding energy savings, filtration efficiency, and cleaner working environments. When efficiency and employees are at their peak, so is productivity. All of these come together to protect the overall health of the business and its bottom line.
Common dust collector filter for metalworking
Any metalworking business involves grinding, sanding, buffing, cutting, and/or polishing indoors. As a result, potentially hazardous dust contaminates the air in your facility. But the dust or fume from these processes is usually invisible. It can degrade your air quality, which is detrimental to employee health as well as the integrity of your machines. The health of your business significantly depends on your properly functioning collection system and high-quality filters inside it.
Besides just cleaning the air, Imperial’s replacement filters can significantly improve the performance of your existing collection system. We uniquely engineer them for longer life and higher filtration efficiency. They are the most cost-effective choice for any collector and any environment. So, your collectors will keep running efficiently and energy-smart. Imperial Systems replacement filters rank among the highest in performance, efficiency, and value.
Types of Metalworking Dust Collector Filters
The kind or style of replacement filters you need depends on the dust collection system on your site. Some common types include cartridge collectors, cyclones, wet scrubbers, and electrostatic precipitators (ESPs). Nearly all industrial filtration systems require periodic replacement of filters to eliminate contaminants consistently. We will help you determine which filter variation is the best fit for your system.
All types of industrial air filtration systems are available from Imperial Systems. Plus, we offer replacement filters that are compatible with all major brands of industrial cartridge dust collectors. Learn more on our DeltaMAXX dust collector replacement cartridge filters page.

Perhaps your filters get dirty faster than you remember – or you are noticing more dust accumulating around your facility.
It’s time to take charge of your dust collector by checking off your needs in your filter cartridges re-order.
What Do I Need To See In My Dust Collector Filter Cartridges?
That’s a great question. Here at Imperial Systems, we want to make sure that you are receiving the best care necessary. Did you know that due to lack of maintenance or quality products, your facility may experience a combustible dust explosion? According to OSHA, from 1980 to 2005, there were:
- 281 dust explosions
- 119 deaths
- 718 injuries
Those bulleted stats are 3 major reasons why you need to be sure you are investing in quality filter cartridges.
5 Characteristics Of Quality Dust Collector Filter Cartridges
High Efficiency
With an average filter, the filter needs time to warm up before it works most efficiently because the surface level must become more sustainable to collect the dust. But, a filter built with Nanofiber Technology does not need time to warm up because the surface level was already created to be sustainable and substantial from the beginning.
Cleaning Is Easy
Who likes to take time cleaning a filter, anyway? Talk about productivity time wasted. Be sure that the filters you are using have tight-knit surfaces, you don’t need to waste your time any longer. Tight-knit surfaces prevent dust from getting deep into the filter, allowing you to clean up quicker and easier. No more working lunch breaks, cleaning the filters!
Customizable Filters
Other companies’ filters come in specific shapes and sizes, not allowing you to get filters that fit your needs. Imperial Systems offers customizable filters that come in any shape and size dust collector cartridge.
Long Filter Life
Perhaps one of the most important characteristics, filter life can either burn a hole in your pocket or put money back in. Standard filters may only last a short time, while filters with Nanofiber Technology last twice as long as standard filters.
What do all of these characteristics and Imperial Systems have in common? Our premium dust collector filter cartridges. DeltaMAXX filter cartridges come with all of this, and more. Along with our quality product, we also bring you superb customer service that not only makes you feel like a high-class customer, you also feel like part of the family.

Cartridge filter replacement is an essential part of preventing accidents in your manufacturing plant.
Cartridge filter replacement is an important step in eliminating potential causes of ignition if you are in metalworking, manufacturing, or woodwork.
What are cartridge filters?
Cartridge filters are applied in a variety of contexts as a tool to filter water, chemicals, hydraulic fluid, and other types. They include the media for filtration, the receptacle, and the liquid filter. Since cartridges are porous, they can be made from many types of media such as carbon, polythermoplastics, metal mesh, nylon, and even paper.
If you require a cartridge filter replacement that will filter media of large sizes, this type will have a faster rate of flow than those that filter only small impurities. Filters’ very disposability is one of their benefits in metalworking and other industrial manufacturing. They can be removed with ease and replaced with an exact replica.
For this reason, a disposable cartridge filter replacement will come to you pre-filled with the required filter media and have a set duration. Then the cartridge should be thrown away and replaced with a new cartridge. There are also refillable cartridges which can be re-used a number of times. In the case of refillable cartridges, only the filter media needs to be replaced while the actual filter can be washed out.
Why it’s important
-
- 1. Safety
Everyone agrees that prevention is the key to ensuring that serious hazards are eliminated, but oftentimes, industrial dust collection may be a subject that just…slips through the cracks for many manufacturing managers. The dust collector or cartridge filter may not be used on a regular day-to-day basis by the person deciding when to have it checked or replaced, so the subject is easily forgotten or, relegated to the bottom of the priority list because it seems like an extra cost. But forgetting about dust collection until it is too late is not an option when the health and livelihood of your employees is at stake. As an employer, you can encounter serious problems with the law if you allow an accident of this sort to occur on your watch.
-
- 2. Equipment life
The life of your equipment, whether that’s a welding table, CNC cutting table, laser/plasma cutting table, etc., will be extended through your good care of it. Using proper filtration media in your industrial plant to ensure that all impurities are blocked during production will ensure longer life. Don’t forget to check your cartridge filter and research whether you are using the right type of media for your needs. You can talk to us at Imperial Systems at 724-662-2801 for advice pertaining to your particular industry.
- 3. Save Money
If ensuring proper filtration extends the life of your equipment, you can be sure that taking this step will also help save your company money in the long haul. If you bought a $60,000 car, you’d be sure to buy the correct parts and maintenance tools. Why not take care of your $60,000 machine that produces your revenue? A cartridge filter replacement is an investment that will help you avoid future costs and problems.
